Overview

This node integrates with the SMSNiaga API to manage SMS messaging and related resources such as subscriber groups, sender IDs, and account information. Specifically, for the Group - Get operation, it retrieves detailed information about a particular subscriber group associated with the user's SMSNiaga account.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Fetching details of a specific subscriber group to review its properties or membership.
  • Integrating subscriber group data into workflows for targeted SMS campaigns.
  • Automating management tasks by retrieving group info before updating or deleting.

Practical example:

  • A marketing automation workflow that fetches a subscriber group's details to personalize SMS messages sent to that group.

Properties

Name Meaning
Select Group Name or ID Choose the subscriber group to retrieve by selecting from a list of existing groups or specifying the group's unique ID. This identifies which subscriber group’s details will be fetched.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the subscriber group details returned by the SMSNiaga API. The structure typically includes fields such as the group's name, unique identifier (UUID), creation date, and possibly other metadata related to the group.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Example output JSON structure (simplified):

{
  "uuid": "group-unique-id",
  "name": "Group Name",
  "created_at": "2023-01-01T00:00:00Z",
  // additional group details...
}

Dependencies

  • Requires an active SMSNiaga API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The node makes authenticated HTTP requests to the SMSNiaga API endpoint at https://manage.smsniaga.com/api.
  • Proper network connectivity to the SMSNiaga service is necessary.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  • Authentication failures: Occur if the API token is invalid or expired.
  • Invalid group ID: If the specified group UUID does not exist or is malformed.
  • API rate limits: Too many requests in a short time may cause throttling.
  • Network errors: Connectivity issues can prevent successful API calls.

Error Messages and Resolutions

  • "Authentication failed: Invalid or expired API token."
    Check and update your SMSNiaga API credentials in n8n.

  • "Not found: The requested resource does not exist."
    Verify the group UUID is correct and that the group exists in your SMSNiaga account.

  • "Rate limit exceeded: Too many requests sent in a short period."
    Reduce request frequency or implement retry logic with delays.

  • "Bad request: The request was improperly formatted or contained invalid parameters."
    Ensure the group UUID parameter is correctly provided and formatted.

If the node is set to continue on failure, error details will be included in the output JSON for each failed item.
